Godox announced the Godox AD200Pro II. The details are below:

Optimal Performance
The enhanced AD200Pro II TTL Pocket Flash from Godox is a versatile 200Ws flash with convenient and optimized features. Offering the same flexibility previously found in its predecessor, the AD200Pro II was developed with advanced capabilities to help you create a versatile and effective lighting setup. Just as its previous version, the Pro II includes a standard speedlite head and a bare bulb head to give you the option of two distinctly different qualities of light. Both flash heads are now in their latest improved versions – H200 II and H200J II. Power is variable from 1/512 to full power, while each flash head has a bi-color LED modeling light. Some other relevant upgrades of the AD200Pro II are uncomplicated wireless sync with an optional X3 trigger and group color indicator for easy identification.

Your Lighting Companion
The AD200Pro II offers full compatibility with several TTL systems including Canon, Nikon, Sony, FUJIFILM, Olympus, and Panasonic. All of its functions can not only be made manually on the unit but also wirelessly thanks to the Godox wireless X system. Remote operation requires separate purchase of a Godox trigger, such as the recommended X3, and the flash is also compatible with the X2, XPro, and XPro II models. The AD200Pro II body is compact and lightweight enough to become your ideal lighting companion in the studio or on location.

AD200Pro II Upgrades
Keeping some characteristics of its previous version, such as 200Ws and 0.01-0.8 sec recycling time for fast and reliable use, the AD200Pro II provides flash durations from 1/272 to 1/23,500 sec with its speedlite flash head, 1/252 to 1/16,200 sec with its bare bulb one, and a wider output range from 1/1 to 1/512. Settings are accessible via local buttons and displayed on the easy-to-read, upgraded TFT (thin-film-transistor) color screen for intuitive onboard control. Read More »
